Adams units were on the call so you were listening to Adams? When York patches an Interops TG to a regular TG the patch does identify as a unique TG number.

Must be a patch .

20xxx series are always patches. Depending on what scanner you're using, it should indicate that you're looking at a patch. You should still be able to catch the call on the original TGIDs too.

The UHF Sites are listed in the database. They are the Phase I system.

This is a thread for York County, PA. You'll want to search under Nebraska for they frequencies, or ask in their forum for help.

The 700mhz side of the system is operational, and a limited number of portable radios have been deployed to field users for "burn-in" evaluation. I'm using one today, and sound quality is good. I'm in the extreme southeast corner of the county, and it seems as though signal is improved with the addition of the Brogue site, and the switch of the Fulton site from stand-alone to part of the south simulcast.

Did a major road trip today and the next to the last stop was Hanover to take a look at the new 700 sites...

Well, the first issue I found was my Unication G4 kept saying that no sites were in range. Turns out, the RFSS/site values for the 700 sites are wrong on the RRDB. Apparently they are now 10/10, 20/20, 30/30 and 40/40. (lesson learned -- for traveing and looking at new stuff, I'll be using wildcards for various system/site settings in my G4 from now on.

Anyway, I'll submit the RFSS/site value changes.

The other thing I noticed is that in addition to the talkgroups being Phase 2, they are also changed from the 12xxx ranges to 51xxx. I really didn't watch each talkgroup but it would appear that some (most/all?) 12xxx talkgroups on the UHF sites appear on the 700 sites at the same time as 51xxx. Best I could tell, I also some a few 51xxx talkgroups on the West UHF site as well but most were 12xxx.

All talkgroups will begin with a 5. There is a complete overhaul of the fleet map being deployed across all emergency service groups. The RFSS changed for 700 sites, not the 500 sites. You'll see the 12*** ID's disappear as the migration moves forward.

Site values for 700mhz sites updated.

when the 5xxxxx tdma tg id's are sent in, we will add them and then remove the phase 1 tg after the transition is completed.

Thanks for the updates.

Really? They're talking about rolling out the new system around the end of the summer. Might be nice if they provide the county responders training on this new fleet map layout soon.

Did a quick trip to York today and monitored the West, Central and South sites for a while...

York County seems alot busier than when I lived south of Hanover 25 years ago but it could just be that I didn't hear alot from the Hanover area at that time as everything was on low band then (that was long before the UHF trunk system came to be).

Anyway, at first, the radio was being dominated by what sounded like a large school evacuation (real? drill? Idunno). That went on for quite a while. Then, there was a 2-alarm apartment structure fire in the southeast corner of the county (I think). Next there was a fairly large (and growing) search going on for a missing child - also in the southern part of the county I believe. Command was requesting air support and search teams - sounded like one coming from Cumberland County and another being requested from Frederick County Maryland.

This is what I saw on the 700 sites during my trip:

  • it appears that the Fire/EMS talkgroup IDs are still the same on the 700 sites (for now at least).
  • I matched up a couple 51xxx TGIDs to existing 12xxx TGIDs for some law enforcement areas (submitted to the database)
  • I found several 51xxx law enforcement TGIDs that appeared on both the UHF and 700 Mhz sites... I'll have to play some of that back and see if I can narrow things down.
  • Saw quite a few patches set up on various sites.
  • I suspect some of the towers are not yet operational - I was near/at the Lincolnway Fire station and that tower is listed as being on the (extended?) central site license ... certainly didn't seem to be transmitting. I parked on George St downtown (which is on the primary central site license) for about an hour and it was very stable. That site is very busy (not a surprise)
  • Even though the 700 frquencies are intended to be P25 Phase 2 and much of it was, there was a considerable amount of Phase 1 activity - easy to detect since my Unication G4 is still only Phase 1 (soon to be Phase capable I hope!)

Between Saturday's swing through the area and today, Pro96Com detected these TGIDs on the 700 Mhz sites (some encrypted):

I'll probably be back in a bit after I listen to the recordings I captured.

Hmm there are a couple talkgroups on that list I'm surprised you're seeing already.

this was the Pro96Com list which includes - I believe - data transmission and affiliation messages (where a radio just happened to be switched to one of those talkgroups). The list of TGIDs with voice is likely much smaller - fire/EMS, law enforcement, courthouse, radio maint., unknowns, etc.

I have the system open as well on Pro96Com for Adams County, I just happen to turn on York County just the 700 MHz and so far only have one hit on a voice channel 773.89375 Ch. 08-1566 which is the 700 West site no Control Channel as of yet.

Edit:
Funny thing with Pro96Com is, if you have another site or P25 system running in the scanner it will show on the site activity section.

773.89375 is one of the frequencies on the West site and the control channel (773.24375 yesterday) is definitely there as is the CC for the Central and South sites. I was monitoring them yesterday. I didn't monitor it directly but I'm 99%certain there is an active CC for the North site as well (per the neighbors seen in Pro96Com).
